The Africa Netpreneur Prize

The Jack Ma Foundation has announced the launch of the Africa Netpreneur Prize, an initiative that encourages young Africans to bring forward solutions for Africa and the future through entrepreneurship.

The initiative will support and fund African entrepreneurs that are working to tackle Africa’s challenges and further its digital economy through entrepreneurship. It aims at stimulating the entrepreneurship spirit within young business leaders, striving to help build a youthful, digital and promising Africa.

The programme will run over the next ten years and the foundation will select 10 young leading netpreneurs annually who will share a prize pool of one million US dollars, according to their individual achievements.

Mr. Jack Ma declared “This prize demonstrates our support of a next generation of young entrepreneurs across Africa that is paving the way for a better future and impart positive change in their communities.”
